Mark began his career as an intern at
Bloomberg News in 1995. Six months later he
was one of the five journalists who founded
Bloomberg TV’s European operations in
London.
He’s played an integral role in establishing
Bloomberg Television as a global financial
and business news network. Mark has
witnessed at first hand three global
recessions and covered five UK general
elections and five US elections.
He’s travelled the world to interview more
than 10,000 newsmakers. They’ve included
presidents, princes, prime ministers,
members of the US Federal Reserve and
most of the global business elite. Among
his personal career highlights are interviews
with Microsoft founder Bill Gates and the late
Israeli leader Shimon Peres.
He is a true all-rounder. His professional
interests range from politics to sport and
film. His one professional regret remains not
reporting from the red carpet at the Oscars
ceremony in Hollywood.
